Post your speed test! - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

The title says it all. Post a picture of your speed test. Also if you want post modem and ROM you use.
I hope in the long run this little thread can help people when it comes to info on modems and setups people are using.

And this is how I got out of my contract and why I'm leaving Sprint next week after 10 years. This is actually a good speed test for me.

How did you manage to get out of your contract?

I've been using Sprint for years, their 4G service for over a year now and I've never seen speeds anywhere near what I've seen past few days... it's crazy. I'm hitting 13mb at night, 11mb during the day... I'm VERY pleased right now, it's like years of struggle and their rewarding me.
Rom is straight up Cyanogen 9.

For me, ping times double on ICS.

From playing around past several days, it's all around the pacific northwest, Oregon, Washington, etc.
My guess is they're upgrading towers for LTE. 3G speeds are still the same though, that is to say, beyond belief terrible. But 4G has gone nuts. I might try to find a Sprint store in the area and check to see if LTE is live yet.

So you say your wimax 4g speeds have gone up as a result of the network vision work? I thought that was for lte and 3g improvements only? Can anyone else comment on that?

Beats me as to whats going on... all I know is I've never seen a speedtest result beyond 7mb or so on a GOOD day, now even during busy hours I'm hitting 11, 12, 13... maybe so many Sprint subscribers have cancelled their service due to poor network speeds there's simply now an abundance of bandwidth. lol :laugh:

[Q]Wcdma?

Hey everyone, I recently got a new Android phone, Samsung galaxy s2x, it should have dual 4g capabilities. The speed isn't great compared to what others have been getting. I usually get around 3-4mbps, the Telus website says 7-14 should be attained...
My question is basically, in the wireless options, I can choose gsm, wcdma or both. Is wdcma considered hspa+ ?
I live in Montreal, where the Telus network should be fully developed. Highest speed I've got was 6mbps.
Anything wrong, or were my expectations too high when buying this phone?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk
Also, my girlfriend has an iPhone4 with Telus also, its often quicker than mine on the net...and its a 3g phone.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk
see this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1306045
there are some from Montreal they are getting great speed
the thing is with cell phones, it depends highly in your location and tower
also in Canada do not believe anything that says 4G it's all fake
our infrastructure is poor compared to the USA, at best we can only get good 3G speed even when you see 4G
even the Rogers LTE are no where near as good they also top out around 15 Mbps at its best, while the USA or other counterparts they get like 30 Mbps on LTE
So i'm stuck with slow speeds lol?
I kinda regret going with Telus, they have terrible reception as well as slow speeds...

I just tested mine and I got 19 down and 4 up on Telus. Most days I get an average of 10. I live outside of Vancouver. Downtown I am lucky to get 3.
Telus has always given me faster speeds than Rogers. I am very happy with Telus's network.

I think you are just not tech savy enough to use a cell like the S2X. Try doing a speed test in your browser and you will see that the speed test.net app is crap. I get 21 mbps downlink on telus in mtl using speedtest.net in dolphin HD (using app I get 3-10mbps). Stop blaming the carriers. People like you are just never happy but its your own fault! Maybe also if you would test your phone outside your basement it would help! Mtl reception is flawless, actually reception in QC in general is great.
I have tried all the different modems from the kj3, vk1 and even the Blaze LB7 and different roms and I still get miserable speed on my phone. I have many friends with different phones even 3G phones that are doing alot better. I am getting speeds of less than 300 k downlaod with with full bars.

I think some people had similar problems as you. I don't remember exactly but some workarounds are using the supercharger script and running those 3g scripts or whatever it's called.
Someone if i recall correctly couldn't get fast data at all, he opted for a warranty exchange and that fixed it for him.
If anything you could try making your own thread in the Q&A area and maybe those people who had similar problems can answer it for you. Obviously it's not because of your location because your friends' phones get fast speed in the same location

Sprint speeds, this is good I assume?

well its the same as verizon but niether cdma networks can come close to touching current gsm carriers as far as 3g speeds
i had to get an at&t phone for work so now im packing 2 sgs2's i mix them up so much and no i didnt get the craptacular skyrocket i got the i777 which is the i9100 branded for at&t
Yeah those numbers seem pretty much what I get. Every once in awhile ill be lucky and see 2MB on 3g but its rare.
I'm three blocks from Times Square on New Years Eve. I would have thought with all the crowds today speed would be way down, but:
3G: Ping 84ms Download 2120kbps Upload 850kbps
4G was a little slow however:
4g: Ping 114ms Download 8836kbps Upload 1513kbps
wow... I'm blown away by everybody here.
I'm in central long island (melville for the locals) and around here I average about 100kbps... never ever see above 150
at home, I use wifi and roam control because I've got nothing going on over there. so all of you should feel lucky
clarification: this is real life use. speedtest app says I avg 800kbps but I've never seen that happen
After flashing EL26 modem, my 3g increased to 1360kbps down/ 720 up. Before I was averaging 800 down/ 300up. So far this modem has given me the highest speeds out of all the modems. Even 4g speeds are higher and more consistent. Ping times are slower than previous modems, but speeds are faster. Go figure. I'm in D/FW area here.

[Q] Best ROM/Kernel/Modem Combinations?

There has been discussion, but has anyone found the magic formula? I know many people say the modem is completely independent of the ROM. But others have made the argument that data speeds are married to both.
So, what is your ROM/Kernel/Modem combination and data speeds as well as your location?
I'm in North San Diego County on AOKP B34 ROM, FD24 KERNEL, and FD19 modem. This is not a very good marriage. But Sprint 3G speeds in San Diego suck, have sucked, and probably will suck for the immediate future. Best DL speeds have been 800 kb/s and uploads at around 200 kb/s.
Modems work different for every phone..so there is no "magic combination" sorry =(

It sounds funny reading that 1Mbps is terrible. I haven't exceeded that kind of speed outside of Wifi since I switched to Sprint. My last test had communication failure at ping. not kidding! ROFL---FML 15 more months and I'm out.

Its probably a PA thing. Sprint has been horrible in San Diego. Every metro area has 4G except San Diego. But even AT&T 3G is 10 times faster than Sprints 3G.
I had unlimited plan and left AT&T because they throttled me. But, even when they throttled me, it was faster than Sprint.

[Sprint] LTE Network

UPDATED: POST YOUR SPEEDS HERE! Sprint LTE is live! Post your screenie for all of us not in the initial roll out areas to drool over!

Has anyone had or seen LTE service with Sprint on their GS3 yet?
Yes, only as they are testing tho. They have not turned them on to us yet. Very Promising!! More info a S4GRU.com.
It's comforting to know that after I receive my 32GB, I will just replace refreshing the myorder site multiple times a day with refreshing the spring coverage map multiple times a day.

I'm surprised there isn't more chatter about Sprint's LTE plans on this forum. I think the success or failure of the NV program will make or break this phone, and Sprint itself. For sure it affects my own decisions about both. The timing will be critical.
p.s. I second the recommendation about the s4gru.com site. It is must reading for anyone who cares about the Sprint rollout, and who wants to make an informed choice. There is also a deep font of knowledge there about RF stuff.

I agree 100%. The rollout of NV & LTE is the crux of Sprint as a network thus far. Def going to be a make or break time for Sprint in the next few quarters, especially with regard to timing. They need to make a significant impact, and soon.

I dont think it is a phone problem, from the looks of it you have poor signal strength. Unless you can compare side by side with a comparable phone like an Iphone or S3,. But more or less it is a sprint problem there data speeds have been on the decline.
Yup, normal for sprint. Your pings are pretty good actually. Mine can be up to several seconds. During the day my data drops to <10kbps, like a 9600 baud modem from 1993. Enjoy Sprint.
I'm getting good signal and my Evo data speeds were never this bad. Here is another shot

Were you in a Wimax market with the Evo?
Yes i had wimax but never used it because of battery drain. The speeds on my old Evo were all 3g and i would always get atleast 1mb down now im barely getting .1mb down
Yes sprint data sucks..
Don't have an explanation then... 3G speeds for me have always been fairly consistent. If anything I found the Evo to be a little lackluster in this area. I wouldn't say the 3G speeds I get on my N2 are groundbreaking, but they're adequate.
I'm just waiting patiently for LTE to launch in my area.
Just like most of what they're saying in this thread...Sprints data is horrendous!
BTW...I'm also getting a Note II this coming month!

Don't have an explanation then... 3G speeds for me have always been fairly consistent. If anything I found the Evo to be a little lackluster in this area. I wouldn't say the 3G speeds I get on my N2 are groundbreaking, but they're adequate.

Doing the same. Get about 100kb/s at home and 1.9mb/s at work. Cant wait for LTE to roll out.

You think speeds are bad on the note, try the iPHONE 5 on sprint lol, data wouldn't even load for me unless on wifi. Thank God the note 2 came out before my 14 days were up lmfao
THIS NOTE 2 IS SENT FROM A GALAXY WHERE SAMSUNG SPRINTS TO THE TOP, AND JELLY BEANS EAT APPLES!!!!
I saw this thread a few days ago. I went out yesterday for a drive. LTE radio on Note 2 is stronger then nexus LTE radio. Hard to go anywhere in my area and loose LTE. Regular 3g works good as well. I couldnt be happier knowing the issues with other phones connected to sprint networks. Had a Epic Touch and Nexus. Both had horrible signals.
